Flat, Stamped Stainless Steel Springs

Bel Air Finishing was tasked with improving the fatigue performance of flat, stamped stainless steel springs. The goal was to utilize advanced burnishing technology to harden the surface, enhancing durability and wear resistance for demanding hardware applications.

Bel Air Finishing recommended a Roll Burnisher as the optimal solution to improve the fatigue performance of stainless steel springs. This advanced burnishing process utilizes the pressure and rolling action of precision polishing balls to compact and harden the surface, enhancing resistance to wear, fatigue, and corrosion. Unlike traditional methods, this technique eliminates the “orange-peel” effect and delivers a smooth, uniform finish without damaging delicate components.

By automating the burnishing process, the Roll Burnisher increased the lifespan and performance of the springs while reducing manual labor and ensuring consistent, high-quality results. This reliable and efficient solution meets the stringent demands of hardware applications, preparing the springs for long-term performance under challenging conditions.
